I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone I'm on the telephone
Hollerin' hey hey mama can your daddy come home
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/claude+king/honky+tonk+man_20513999.html ]
Well I'm living fast and dangerously I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
That's when I want to see the lights of town
Cause I'm a honky tonk man...
[ guitar ]
It takes a purty little gal and a jug of wine
That's what it takes to make a honky tonk mind
The jukebox a moanin' honky tonk sound
That's when I want to lay my money down
Cause I'm a honky tonk man...
